Bob Dylan cut Desireflanked by more than a dozen musicians, aided by a producer averse to multitracking, and bent on tequila

Reeling from the effects of his disintegrating marriage, the singer penned several of the most heartfelt songs of his career, including “Sara,” the most overtly public broadcasting of his private life and emotions committed to tape

Straddling lines between haphazard and organized, loose and planned, Desirelives up its title, a masterwork that Dylan would not equal in creativity, performance, and lyricism for another two decades
